Crytek’s Hunt is back from the dead – and it looks pretty cool

Crytek has released a gameplay video showing off Hunt: Showdown, it’s new in the works multiplayer first-person shooter.

Hunt: Showdown emerged from the ashes of Hunt: Horrors of the Gilded Age, the co-op action game from defunct studio Crytek USA.

Crytek has suffered high-profile financial issues that has seen the German company sell off a number of its studios in a bid to raise cash to pay increasingly exacerbated staff, some of whom went months without wages. The company now focuses on its CryEngine business as well as the development of Hunt at its main Frankfurt office and Warface at its Kiev office.
